The c-di-GMP binding protein, YcgR, is the primary inhibitor of motor function in Salmonella and Escherichia coli.

E. coli and Salmonella enterica have multiple c-di-GMP cyclases and phosphodiesterases. Absence of a specific phosphodiesterase YhjH impairs motility in both bacteria. yhjH mutants have elevated c-di-GMP levels and require YcgR, a c-di- GMP-binding protein, for motility inhibition. This study demons...
